Conan exiles need HORSES

, ,

Hello, I have been playing for a month and I think it is very necessary to implement animals that can transport you as horses, with these animals in the game the trip from your base to different areas will be much faster and easier or at least from my point of view.

Agreed. Iā€™ve been wanting mounts for a long time. Unfortunately it probably wonā€™t happen.

Unfortunately as much as iā€™d like to see mounts the game canā€™t handle them on console as anything that moves much faster than a player will end up falling through the map as it loads in so they would be pointless as they would need to move at player speed, i could only see this working for slow moving pack animals but then you can just run a max encumbrance build and get the same result.

whether you like it or not with the current size of the map, the mounts do not need to be good, but they are not necessary to go around the map. I in 10 min I go from temple of frost to the other end without problem.

Mounts are cancelled forever.

Horses as mounts probably wonā€™t make it in the game. Funcom has said they wanted mounts, but ran into technical issues. So horses as ā€˜cargoā€™ or trade caravan might be possible, but not ridden. Mods are about the option to get around the technical problem (and they arenā€™t very stable).

There is always the chance Funcom finds a better way to load in chunks of the map faster. Then they would just need to find a way to deal with clipping terrain.

Aaron,

Funcom has emphatically stated No mounts. Thus thread seems to resurface every few weeks. As its been pointed out, you can reach just about any point in the map within 10 minutes from anywhere else.

That doesnā€™t make mounted combat any less awesome. :smile:

Funcom always could make optimizations or improvements to the game later on that make mounts possible.

Actually, theyā€™ve said thereā€™s an issue with the map and its interaction that makes mounts a problem (I forget the technical explanation ā€“ Iā€™ve slept since last summer). To add mounts, they would have to redo the entire game map (which theyā€™ve said they are not going to do). So while it is ā€œpossibleā€, it would take a long, long time, require hiring many more people (not just artists, but coders, too), and be very expensive. So it would be something for Conan 2.0, but not really worth it for the game as it is now.

Well, its that they load the map terrain in blocks, like ARK. If they could load blocks further out without too much impact on performance AND can change how mounts work so they donā€™t sink into the terrain it could work. It probably wonā€™t be doable soon or with current gen consoles, but thereā€™s a ray of sunshine if you want officially supported mounts at some point in the future.

SUPPOSEDLY their coders tell them it cant be done. The only thing I could think of is flying mounts that disapear and despawn if you get 5 feet from the ground. And they would have to be fat mounts that flapped extra hard but flew slow because the game has rendering issues. Basically all the old school people will just tell you to ā€œStop crying about this there will never be mountsā€ Sorry to inform you so coldly new guy! The game is still pretty damn good without mounts.

I would like horses before horses to find a way to expand the map. One method would be to communicate several servers and be able to travel between them with each server having a different map.

If there were a dlc for Monty python coconuts that I could give my following thrallā€¦ id throw money at Funcom faster than they could blink. $10 for the dlc? TAKE MY MONEY!!!

Yeah, every couple weeks some new player comes in with THE GREAT IDEA THAT MUST BE IMPLEMENTED IMMEDIATELY to suggest.

As if nobody else in the history of the game hasnā€™t posted about mounts.

what does that have to do with conan? they are great comedians of agreement but that they paint in conan? This is a game about conan, besides a DLC. make a mods and point. and I remind you of conanā€™s world. suggestions about that world by god

It was a sarcastic way to say we are about 99% never going to get mounts (horses), so a coconut sound effect is our only hope now :slight_smile:
